Wii version of the Grinder no longer in development?
Posted on 14 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii | 4 Comments
Just so everyone knows, this is pure speculation as of now, but you have to admit it’s pretty suspicious when I developer won’t even comment on whether a game is still in development or not. The following comes from a Kotaku article…
What’s less assuring is the fate of the Wii game. Dolan declined to comment on the status of that version, even when I pressed him to clarify whether it is or isn’t still in development. He stuck to discussing the version we could play at GDC, saying it was High Voltage’s best bet to expand into developing for next-gen consoles.
I don’t know… Something just feels very off about The Grinder these days!

“[GPS and 3G tech would enable gamers to] play online wherever you are. We would also be able to add location-based features to games.” – Nic Watt, Nnooo Games Creative Director
I wouldn’t be opposed to 3G support, but I’m not so sure about GPS. Overall, though, I would definitely like to see the DS successor be more online-friendly.

Rumor: Conduit 2 hints at GDC
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii | 2 Comments
At GDC, High Voltage Software’s main highlights were The Grinder and Tournament of Legends. But there was something in particular that caught the eyes of a G4TV employee. In High Voltage’s demo room, there was a poster on one of the walls that had text that looked like the same font used in The Conduit. When asked if the company was teasing a Conduit sequel, a designer from HVS only said “There’s more to come on that!” So it’s possible that that The Conduit 2 is real, but no one is ready to talk about it just yet.
